Barney, I thank you for it. I had a vague idea of some of the details. Like BD pointed out, we all pick up things along the way. Your post helped me on a few more points. I too have wondered if I shouldn't go over to RIP software (Quadtone RIP or something) once my present set-up becomes outdated (Epson C86 with MIS Ultratone carbon inks). My present set-up will become outdated since it is tied to a particular printer. Eventually I will need something else, I know. Thanks from me, Daniel If I have wasted the groups time, I am sorry.
